A package from Hong Kong looked ordinary enough — until CBP officers in Louisville opened it and found 375 fake luxury watches worth more than $54 million on paper.

A Kentucky man trusted to babysit a young girl used that access to abuse her — and then shared videos of the abuse with strangers around the world.

Federal immigration agents killed two Minnesota residents and deported hundreds more during Operation Metro Surge earlier this year. The neighbors who organized to survive those raids are now preparing for a different fight — protecting the November 2026 midterm elections from what they fear could be an attempt to steal them.

A truck carrying what looked like plastic pellets crossed into Laredo, Texas — but CBP officers weren't convinced. Inside, they found over 1,100 pounds of methamphetamine worth more than $10 million. The June 15, 2026 bust is one of the largest drug seizures at this busy commercial crossing.

For years, millions of low-cost packages from overseas entered the US without paying any import taxes. That loophole is now closed.
